Agenda 04/28/2026 Item #11E (Moved from Item #16A9 Approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition Program with Thien Van Tran and Lua Thi-Kim Nguyen) (2)4/28/2026
Item # 16.A.9
ID# 2026-735
Executive Summary
Recommendation to approve an Agreement for Sale and Purchase under the Conservation Collier Land Acquisition
Program with Thien Van Tran and Lua Thi-Kim Nguyen ("Tran") for a 2.27-acre parcel at a cost of $150,000, for a total
cost not to exceed $152,180, inclusive of closing costs.
OBJECTIVE: To purchase a 2.27-acre property within North Golden Gate Estates for the Conservation Collier
Program.
CONSIDERATIONS: On May 27, 2025, Agenda Item No. I I.C., the Board approved a CCLAAC recommended AAL
and directed staff to actively pursue acquisition of the properties under the Program. The Tran parcel was approved as an
A -list property on the May 2025 AAL.
Tran - 41612760001— 38th Ave. SE in North Golden Gate Estates, east of Everglades Blvd. S, north of I-75
• 2.27 acres of vacant, unimproved land consisting primarily of upland Mesic flatwoods and Oak/Pine hammock
plant communities.
• Located within the Everglades and I-75 Blvd. TPMA.
• Frequent use by the Florida black bear and the Florida panther in this area. Conservation parcels in this area will
protect a connection from private conservation lands and undeveloped property within North Belle Meade to the
west to Dr. Robert H. Gore III Preserve and the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge to the east.
• Staff contracted one independent, state -certified, general real estate appraisal firm to appraise the Tran property
and five other properties in the same area. The total cost to obtain all six appraisals was $3,900.
• An offer of $142,500 was made on January 29, 2026, and rejected. The negotiated purchase price of $150,000
was accepted on February 17, 2026.
• The purchase price is 100% of the appraised value.
The Tran property met 3 of 8 Initial Screening Criteria identified in the Conservation Collier Ordinance No. 2002-63, as
amended, including native plant communities, human social values, and being within a Target Protection Mailing Area
(TPMA).
Telemetry indicates significant utilization of this area by the Florida black bear and the federally endangered Florida
panther. Preservation of this property would allow refuge for wildlife, including the Florida panther, travelling between
North Golden Gate Estates and Picayune Strand State Forest to the south. The property can also be built upon with other
acquisitions in this area to provide a connection from private conservation lands and undeveloped property within North
Belle Meade to Dr. Robert H. Gore III Preserve and the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge to the east.
The property provides opportunities for hiking and fishing.
The parcel is zoned Estates, which allows a maximum of 1 single family unit per 2.25 acres.
This acquisition is consistent with Conservation Collier Purchasing Policy, Resolution No. 2025-194, which allows the
offer amount to be determined by staff but shall be no more than the appraised value.
Pursuant to Ordinance 2002-63, as amended, a Project Design Report (PDR) for this property is provided herewith.
This item is consistent with the Collier County strategic plan objectives to preserve and enhance the character of our
community and to protect our natural resources.
FISCAL IMPACT: The funds for this vacant land acquisition will be withdrawn from the Conservation Collier
Acquisition Fund (1061). The property identified herein comprises a not -to -exceed acquisition cost of $152,180 as

initial restoration, the estimated maintenance costs for this parcel will be approximately $575 annually.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Fee simple acquisition of conservation lands is consistent with and supports
Policy 1.3.l(e) in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element of the Collier County Growth Management Plan.

contains Mesic flatwoods and Oak/Pine hammock. Telemetry also indicates significant utilization
of this area by Florida black bear and the federally endangered Florida panther. This parcel
contributes to an important wildlife corridor connecting species from the Florida Panther Refuge,
Golden Gate Rural Estates, Dr. Robert H. Gore III Preserve, North Belle Meade, as well as the
Picayune Strand State Forest and Fakahatchee Strand State Preserve to the south through wildlife
underpasses under I-75.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE
Market value definition used by agencies that regulate federally insured financial
institutions in the United States is defined by The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal,
7th ed. (Chicago: Appraisal Institute, 2022) as:
The most probable price that a property should bring in a competitive and open market
under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently
and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit
in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing
of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
■ Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
■ Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider
their best interests;
■ A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
■ Payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of
financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
■ The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected
by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone
associated with the sale."

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
NATIONAL ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) released the following statement
on December 10, 2025. Available indicators suggest that economic activity has been
expanding at a moderate pace. Job gains have slowed this year, and the unemployment
rate has edged up through September. More recent indicators are consistent with these
developments. Inflation has moved up since earlier in the year and remains somewhat
elevated.
The Committee seeks to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2
percent over the longer run. Uncertainty about the economic outlook remains elevated.
The Committee is attentive to the risks to both sides of its dual mandate and judges that
downside risks to employment rose in recent months.
In support of its goals and in light of the shift in the balance of risks, the Committee
decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 1/4 percentage point to 3-
1/2 to 3-3/4 percent. In considering the extent and timing of additional adjustments to the
target range for the federal funds rate, the Committee will carefully assess incoming data,
the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks. The Committee is strongly committed to
supporting maximum employment and returning inflation to its 2 percent objective.
In assessing the appropriate stance of monetary policy, the Committee will continue to
monitor the implications of incoming information for the economic outlook. The
Committee would be prepared to adjust the stance of monetary policy as appropriate if
risks emerge that could impede the attainment of the Committee's goals. The Committee's
assessments will take into account a wide range of information, including readings on
labor market conditions, inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and financial and
international developments.
The Federal Reserve cut rates by 25 basis points in September 2025, the first cut of the
year, and another 25 basis points in October 2025 and December 2025. According to the
Fed's dot plot, policymakers are split with a majority projecting just one cut in 2026,
down from expectations earlier in the year.
The following table details the economic forecasts of Federal Reserve Board members
and Federal Reserve Bank presidents as of December 2025. Real GDP is projected to
grow at a rate of 2.3% in 2026, an increase from the September 2025 projection of 1.8%.
The unemployment projection for 2026 remained at 4.4%. The Core PCE inflation
projection for 2026 decreased to 2.5% from the September 2025 projection of 2.6%.

NoteProjections of change in real gross domestic product (GOP) and projections for both measures of inflation are percent rh angles from the fourth quarter of the previous year to the fourth quarter
of the year indicated. PCE inflation and core PCE inflation are the percentage rates of change'in respectively, the price index for personal consumption expendth- (PCE) and the price index for
PCE excluding food and energy. Projections far the unemployment rate are for the average civilian unemployment rate in the fourth quarter of the year indicated. Each participant's projections are
based on his or her assessment of appropriate monetary policy. Longer -run projections represent each participant's assessment of the rate to which each variable would be expected tc converge
under appropriate monetary policy and in the absence of further shacks to the economy. The projections forthe federal funds rate are the value of the midpoint of the projected appropriate target
range for the federal funds rate orthe projected appropriate target level for the federal funds rate atthe end of the specified calendar year or over the longer rum The September projections were
made in conjunction with the meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee on September 16-17, 2025_

Lawrence Yun, NAR Chief Economist, noted in a January 2025 Economic Issues and
Home Sales Trends webinar that 2025 may be a better year for real estate, with more
inventory, more listings and more sales. Dr. Yun projects home sales rising 9% this year
and another 13% in 2026. He projects price growth to be more muted at 0% to 5%.
According to the Freddie Mac 2025 Outlook, although demand is expected to remain well
above average in 2025, vacancy is expected to increase to 6.2%. The below -average rent
growth of 2.2% and rising vacancy rates result in a forecast of gross rental income growth
of 2% for 2025.
According to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts' (NAREIT) 2025
Report, "there is a real possibility for an environment with both moderating interest rates
and robust economic growth, otherwise known as an economic soft landing.
Nevertheless, there are both lingering and emerging risks, including soft property
fundamentals in some sectors and higher interest rates reflecting fiscal imbalances.
Overall, in a world that will be marked by increasing and accelerating change, we see
opportunities for REITs in 2025."
In the 2025 CBRE U.S. Real Estate Market Outlook, Dr. Richard Barkham, Global Chief
Economist and Head of Global Research, predicts that despite many uncertainties, "the
U.S. economy is poised for growth in 2025, driven by consumer spending, easing
financial conditions and productivity gains. While retail and data centers have been
supported by longer -term trends, all other real estate sectors will see the start of a new
cycle." Even though the 10-year Treasury yield is projected to remain above 4%, Dr.
Barkham projects capitalization rates will compress slightly. Investors have the
opportunity to secure long-term returns that have not been available for many years.

TRAN PARCEL FLORIDA ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
According to the Deloitte Center for Financial Services annual Commercial Real Estate
Outlook for 2025, "the global economic recovery has been uneven across geographies,
and this will likely continue going forward." Results from Deloitte's 2025 commercial
real estate outlook survey give some indication that commercial real estate owners and
investors are hopeful that 2025 will emerge as a year of potential recovery over two years
of muted revenues and pullbacks in spending. After two consecutive years where most
survey respondents expected revenue declines, 88% of global respondents now report
they expect their company's revenues to increase going forward, a substantial shift from
the 60% who expected further declines last year. Moreover, 60% of respondents expect
growth to be in excess of 5% year over year.
According to the PwC Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2025, real estate investors and
developers should be poised for an upturn in industry trends as the post -pandemic
disruption abates and positive cyclical forces gain strength. "The Federal Reserve is
among the most important cyclical forces. Its pivot to reducing interest rates indicates a
peak for inflation and construction costs and the pivot is helping real estate markets to
clear, boosting transaction activity. However, not all dealmakers are ready to jump in
with both feet. After all, rate cuts also indicate a slower economy and that could affect net
operating income (NOI) growth. The path to renewed vigor could take surprising
detours."
According to J.P. Morgan Chase 2025 commercial real estate outlook, Following several
years of elevated inflation, muted growth and general uncertainty, commercial real estate
could be positioned for an upswing. "The industry is poised to be in a better place
compared to the last few years," said Victor Calanog, Global Head of Research and
Strategy, Real Estate Private Markets at Manulife Investment Management. "It appears
that the landing will be relatively soft, so that should mean continued positive momentum
for economic activity, benefiting leasing and income drivers, including rents and
occupancies." Overall, the outlook for the 2025 commercial real estate is positive. The
industrial sector remains the industry's darling. Multifamily and retail continue to
perform well, although they do have vulnerabilities. In some markets, even office
vacancy rates are beginning to moderate.
FLORIDA ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Florida was home to four of the nation's top five
fastest -growing metropolitan statistical areas and three of the top 10 that gained the
largest number of people from 2022 to 2023, reflecting continued population growth
across the South. U.S. migration patterns played a significant role in the South's
population growth. Many people moved to this region, contributing to its overall positive
net domestic migration (more people moving in from the rest of the United States than
moving out to other parts of the United States). From 2022 to 2023, 28 of the top 30
metro areas with the highest positive domestic migration were in the South.
According to the Winter 2024 Florida Forecast prepared by the Institute for Economic
Competitiveness at the University of Central Florida, Florida's economy, as measured by
real Gross State Product, will expand at an average annual rate of 2.5% from 2024 to
Page 8
TRAN PARCEL FLORIDA ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
2027. Real Gross State Product will decelerate during the economic slowdown as growth
will slow to 3.3% in 2024 and 2.2% in 2025, then accelerate to reach 2.5% by 2026 and
ease to 2.1 % in 2027.
According to WalletHub's 2025 Best States for Retirement report, Florida remains the
top choice based on affordability and quality of life. According to the report, the
combination of warm weather, miles of coastline and a tax -friendly environment keeps it
at No. 1. Florida stands out not just for its beaches and recreation options but also for
what it lacks: state income, inheritance and estate taxes. WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo
said, "There's a lot of talk in Florida now about doing away with property taxes, which
would make it even more appealing to retirees." Other top-ranking states included
Minnesota, Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota.
Payroll job growth in Florida will begin to gradually decelerate as the economy remains
at full employment. After year -over -year growth of 5.7% in 2022, payroll employment in
2023 was 3.4% but will slow to 2.0% in 2024 and drift lower to 0.6% by 2027.
Housing starts have felt the bitter chill of higher mortgage rates. Total starts were
193,500 in 2022-before higher mortgage rates and worries of a slowing economy
started a deceleration that will slow starts to 157,072 in 2027.
The unemployment rate fell to 2.7% in 2023. The slower economy will push the rate up
to 3.1% in 2024, and to 3.6% in 2025 before creeping to 3.8% in 2027.

Collier County has long been an attractive place to retire and it continues to be an area
that experiences a great deal of seasonal population increases. According to the Collier
County Comprehensive Planning Department, Collier County's population increases up
to 25% between November and April due to seasonal residents and short-term
agricultural workers in the Immokalee area. The population increase creates a high
degree of seasonality within the retail, service, and hospitality sectors of Collier County's
economy.
Collier County is located less than 150 miles from Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale, Miami,
Sarasota, and West Palm Beach as shown in the following table.

U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in rankings and consumer advice
evaluated the country's 150 most populous metropolitan areas based on affordability, job
prospects and desirability. The 2024 25 Best Places to Retire includes six Florida metro
areas with Daytona Beach the top Florida market at No. 8. Tampa is No. 12 overall while
Sarasota is No. 18. Naples is ranked 61h overall in the 2023-2024 Best Places to Live
report released by U.S. News & World Report and Sarasota is ranked 5th
Naples ranks No. 1 in the annual U.S. News & World Report Best Places to Live in the
U.S. Sarasota, was ranked No. 11.
Employment
The local economy is largely dependent on the real estate market. Naples is one of the
wealthiest areas in Florida, and it has seen significant population and job growth over the
past several years. As migration from state to state has returned to pre -pandemic levels,
the Naples region has seen population and job growth slow over the past year.
According to the 4Q 2025 CoStar report, the market is one of the most affluent areas in
Florida, with a median household income of $94,000, about 10% higher than the national
median. The area's reputation as a retirement destination is reflected in its median age of
54, well above the state's median of 43. This demographic profile shapes both the local
economy and commercial real estate landscape, as the market caters to a population with
considerable disposable income and a preference for high -quality amenities and
healthcare services.
Population growth has long been a primary driver of commercial real estate expansion in
Naples. Growth peaked between 2021 and 2022, when the market added approximately
13,000 new residents, but has since slowed to 3,100 net new residents in the past year.
Migration patterns have largely returned to pre pandemic norms, with in -migration from
out-of-state movers expected to remain subdued in the future. This moderation in
population growth is having a cascading impact on commercial real estate fundamentals,
with demand for office, industrial, and retail space softening as the pace of new residents
slows.
Healthcare is the cornerstone of Naples' economy, representing the largest share of the
market's employment base. Major hospital systems are among the top employers, and the
presence of Arthrex, a global medical device manufacturer employing nearly 4,000
people, underscores the market's strength in health related industries.
The area's aging population continues to drive demand for medical office space,
outpatient facilities, and specialized healthcare services, supporting ongoing investment
by healthcare companies. Additionally, tourism, real estate, and finance contribute to the
region's economic diversity, but none rival healthcare's dominance in local employment.

Collier County and the entire Southwest Florida Region is substantially dependent on the
real estate and construction sectors. Therefore, the area has been and should be more
susceptible to cyclical fluctuations that have occurred in other areas dominated by a
single industry. The Southwest Florida Economic Development Alliance reports key
employers in Southwest Florida (Collier, Lee and Charlotte County) from Biofuels,
healthcare, technology, apparel design, to sugar production are a driving force behind the
region's success. The tables below provides a few examples of some key employers in

Growth continues to shift east with Ave Maria becoming the top -selling single-family
residential community in Collier County and was recently ranked as one of the Top 20
Selling Master -Planned Communities in the United States. It has maintained the top
ranking in the Naples -Fort Myers market for the past eight years. Ave Maria reported a
total of 600 new home sales in 2024 and 652 new home sales in 2023. It is the highest-
ranking community in all of Collier County. There are currently four residential builders
in Ave Maria, CC Homes, Del Webb Naples, Lennar and Pulte Homes. The grand
opening of The National Golf and Country Club at Ave Maria, a bundled golf community
by Lennar, was held on January 7, 2021. The Immokalee Road corridor between Naples

and Ave Maria is projected to see thousands of new homes developed in the next few
years. According to a June 2023 Naples Daily News article, Collier County
commissioners approved an increase in the town of Ave Maria by nearly 1,000 acres to
5,000 acres which doesn't include the roughly 1,000-acre Ave Maria University campus
and other public benefits such as parks. According to David Genson, president of
development for Barron Collier Cos., while more single-family homes will be built, the
maximum number of residences won't change, with the cap remaining at 11,000. With
the way the town was originally laid out, it would have supported about 8,400 units
without adding more land. The original plans called for 60% of the homes to be single-
family which will increase to more than 80%. Approximately 50% of the buyers are from
the east coast of Florida.
In January 2020, in what was described as one of the most important votes for the future
of growth in Collier County, commissioners approved Rivergrass Village. The village is
the first of three planned 1,000-acre villages stretching from just north of Oil Well Road
to east of Golden Gate Boulevard East. Rivergrass Village will allow for up to 2,500
homes; 100,000 square feet of retail and office uses and a minium of 25,000 square feet
for civic government, and institutional buildings. Longwater Village will allow for up to
2,600 homes; 65,000 square feet of retail and office space and 25,000 square feet for
civic government, and institutional buildings and Bellmar Village will allow for up to
2,750 homes; 85,000 square feet of retail and office space and 27,500 square feet for
civic government, and institutional buildings. In a near unanimous decision, the Collier
County Planning Commission agreed to recommend approval of Longwater in March
2021. The project has sparked controversy because the property sits in the
environmentally sensitive Rural Lands Stewardship Area, or RLSA. Commissioners
voted to approve the Longwater and Bellmar Villages on June 8, 2021. The
commissioners approved Brightshore, another rural village with thousands of proposed
homes in December 2022.
In December 2025, Collier County commissioners unanimously approved a new rural
village known as Horse Trails Village. The Collier Enterprises development is planned
on nearly 1,218 acres on the north side of Oil Well Road, west of State Road 29 within
the Rural Lands Stewardship Area. According to the Naples Daily News, it's the eighth
village or town the county has approved in the environmentally sensitive Rural Lands
Stewardship Area (RLSA). Horse Trails is approved for up to 3,205 homes, including
305 set aside as affordable housing; a maximum of 169,865 square feet of retail and
office development; a maximum of 100,000 square feet of indoor self -storage; and a
minimum of 32,050 square feet of civic, governmental and institutional uses. Other
approved uses include senior housing such as assisted living centers and continuing care
retirement communities, limited to 300 residences. Development could begin in 2027,
with the build -out expected to take about 15 years.
There are more than $1 billion in new luxury high-rise developments near the coast
including The Ritz -Carlton Residences, Naples (formerly known as One Naples) at the
northeast corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive as well as Pelican Bay
(Mystique completed in 2019) and Kalea Bay (Towers 100 and 200 are complete, Tower

300 was completed in December 2022, Tower 400 was completed in 2024 and Tower
500 is scheduled for completion in September 2026 in North Naples. New commercial
development is very active at the intersections of Collier Boulevard and US 41 East as
well as Collier Boulevard and Immokalee Road.
In its 2nd Quarter 2025 report, the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight
(OFHEO) found that the Naples- Marco Island MSA had a 0.45% increase in home
prices (purchase -only) over the trailing 12 months. Home prices (purchase -only) in the
state of Florida decreased 1.39% over the past year (2Q 2024 — 2Q 2025) which was 50th
in the nation.
The continuing care retirement community, Moorings Park, teamed with London Bay
Homes to develop an independent living development with 275 residences in 17
buildings. All of the buildings are six stories over parking. Grande Lake, will be built on
55 acres off Golden Gate Parkway, between Airport -Pulling and Livingston Roads.
Entrance fees start at $1.5 million and are 70% refundable. Construction on the first 47
units in three buildings commenced in December 2018 with completion in May 2020.
NCH Healthcare partnered with New York -based Hospital for Hospital for Special
Surgery, known as HSS, to build a three-story, 80,000-square-foot hospital. HSS at NCH
will be a 15-bed acute -care addition on the hospital campus located along the north side
of Immokalee Road near the NCH North Naples campus between Health Park and
Medical Boulevards. The facility opened to patients in June 2025.
Paradise Coast Sports Complex, is Collier County's new $100 million Amateur Sports
Complex. The county hopes to become a destination for traveling youth sports teams and
amateur athletes. While the focus of the complex is athletics, with 20 fields between
soccer, baseball and softball, plus a 10,000-person championship stadium, the goal is to
get people to stay after the game is over with The Cove and The Factory. The Cove is a
bar and food truck area for patrons to relax, listen to live music and play a variety of yard
games (bag toss, oversized Connect Four and Jenga, plus ping pong). The Factory is an
outdoor workout facility focusing on functional fitness (similar to CrossFit) which is
available on a monthly membership basis. Additionally, the man-made lake next to The
Cove includes a 2/3 mile jogging loop with three workout stations. There is a climbing
wall for public use and a beach volleyball court.
Collier County Commissioners approved a $15 million economic development agreement
on June 22, 2021 for The Great Wolf Lodge. The Lodge is built on 20 acres of land along
City Gate Boulevard North and feature a 100,000 square foot indoor water park, 500-
room hotel, and 62,000 square feet of amenities and attractions. The resort opened in
September 2024 and has 600 full-time and part-time employees.
Naples Comprehensive Health (NCH) announced plans for an estimated $65 million
osteopathic medical school that will be located near the corner of Hacienda Lakes
Boulevard and Collier Boulevard in East Naples. According to a Naples Daily News
article, dated November 11, 2025, Bay College of Osteopathic Medicine LLC is looking
for a "sister school" to complement its recently completed Orlando College of
Page 19
TRAN PARCEL COLLIER COUNTY AREA ANALYSIS
Osteopathic Medicine. The Collier County Commission unanimously approved $6
million in economic development funds over 10 years for the initiative. The project is
expected to have a $1.7 billion to $2 billion overall economic impact in the region over
25 years, according to county officials. The Naples College of Osteopathic Medicine will
accommodate 400 students on campus and is expected to open in the fall of 2028,
according to Dr. Robert Hasty, dean of the Orlando osteopathic school.
Work is underway for Collier County's first Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) at
Pine Ridge Road and I-75. A second DDI will be installed at the Immokalee Road
interchange along with the proposed widening of Interstate 75. Phase I of the widening
project (from Immokalee Road to the Lee County line) is projected to commence in 2027.
Phase II (from the Lee County line to just south of Bonita Beach Road up to Corkscrew
Road) is projected to commence in 2029. Phase III (from Pine Ridge Road north to
Immokalee Road) is projected to commence in 2030 and Phase IV (from Golden Gate
Parkway north to Pine Ridge Road) is projected to commence in 2031.
Investment Trends
The following Costar data shows Collier County trends in the Multi -Family, Retail,
Office, and Industrial sectors as of the fourth quarter 2025.
According to the CoStar report, multifamily investment activity in the Naples market has
remained resilient, with total sales volume reaching $228 million over the trailing 12-
month period. This level of activity places current quarterly averages roughly 20% above
the 2015 to 2019 annual average. However, sales activity has trended downward for three
consecutive quarters, with the third quarter of 2025 recording just under $35 million in
total sales volume, a notable decline from the $89 million posted in the fourth quarter of
2024.
A handful of large transactions have accounted for the bulk of recent activity. Over the
past year, six sales closed at prices north of $10 million, compared to just two such
transactions in the prior 12 months. The largest deal year to date was Excelsa's $41
million acquisition of Oasis at Naples, a 216-unit, 1990s-vintage property that traded at
$190,000 per unit. Excelsa has announced plans to invest an additional $7 million in
capital improvements, highlighting the growing prevalence of value -add strategies in the
market. By comparison, the largest trade of 2024 was PLK Communities' $82 million
purchase of the newly built Mark Lane Apartments, which traded at $287,000/unit for a
2022-vintage asset.
Despite these headline transactions, the broader investment landscape has become more
challenging. Multifamily fundamentals have waned over the past two years, with rising
vacancies and declining rents weighing on underwriting and investor sentiment. The
market has seen a shift toward value -add plays, as buyers seek opportunities to reposition
older assets and drive returns through renovations and operational improvements.

Transaction activity is likely to remain subdued until there is a meaningful improvement
in market fundamentals. While select deals will continue to close, widespread sales
activity is unlikely in the near term.

According to the CoStar Report, retail investment activity has been consistent over the
past year, with the market recording $203 million in total sales volume. Current levels are
down from the impressive run seen between 2021 and 2023, when the market averaged
around $400 million in annual sales volume.
The bulk of transactions over the past year have been on the smaller side here, with an
average sale price of $3.4 million. The Naples market opened 2025 with a larger
transaction. Colorado -based M Development purchased a nearly 20,000-SF building on
5th Avenue in Downtown Naples for $29.5 million, roughly $1,500/SF. The buyer and its
Page 21
TRAN PARCEL COLLIER COUNTY AREA ANALYSIS
affiliates have bought several buildings in Downtown Naples over the past few years,
including a 28-property $263 million deal in October 2023.
A more typical market trade would be the $3.1 million acquisition of a free-standing
restaurant along Bellaire Bay Drive in March 2025. The 5,500-SF building was 100%
leased at the time of sale and traded for $560/SF after being on the market for 60 days.

According to the CoStar Report, office investment activity has remained muted over the
course of 2025, with very few transactions closing for more than $3 million. In the past
12 months in Naples, sales volume has tallied $76.6 million which represented 330,000
SF of inventory, and it compares to the five-year average of $115 million. The cyclical
peak for quarterly sales volume was $118 million during 23Q4, and the last completed
quarter totaled $54.5 million.
Page 22
TRAN PARCEL COLLIER COUNTY AREA ANALYSIS
Sale transactional pricing, which fluctuates based on the mix of assets sold over the
trailing year, has averaged $310/SF in the past 12 months versus the five-year average of
$280/SF. Conversely, market pricing, which estimates the value of all office assets in
Naples based on completed sales, measures $250/SF. That compares to the five-year
average of $240/SF.
Office transactions are typically on the smaller side here, averaging just $1.5 million.
However, on a per SF basis, Naples is one of the most expensive office markets to
purchase buildings in Florida. At $310/SF on a transactional basis, office buildings trade
here much higher than the national average of $199/SF. For example, SG Contracting
Inc. purchased the 100% occupied Commons V MOB from Healthcare Realty Trust for
$19.25 million, or $320/SF.

According to the CoStar report, industrial investment activity has been relatively muted
over the past few quarters after a multi -year run of historic sales volumes.
Over the past year, the market has recorded $79.5 million in total sales volume, well
below the 5-year average of $123 million. Pricing has remained more or less the same
over the past several years, averaging around $192/SF, as of the fourth quarter of 2025.
Sales are typically on the smaller side here, with an average sale price of just under $2
million. This market is not reliant on institutional investors, and as such, future
investment volumes should be in line with current volumes. The largest sale was a $10.25
million acquisition of a 40,000-SF industrial building along Horseshoe Drive by a local
private investor. The building was 50% occupied at the time of sale and traded for
roughly $260/SF.

Conclusion
The long term economic outlook for Collier County is positive. The area lures people
from all over the country for tourism as well as retirement, with the beaches and weather
considered major demand drivers.
The projected growth in population and employment provide an economic base that
supports demand for real estate in the subject neighborhood and for the subject property.
These conditions have resulted in increasing property values and should stimulate
continued increases within the foreseeable future. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, the
residential market had stabilized after several years of an expansion period, with
sustained growth in demand and increasing construction. Since the coronavirus
pandemic, residential demand increased significantly with record sales in 2020 and
continued high demand but limited inventory in 2021 and 2022. Inventory increased in
2023 and 2024 as demand declined due to continued increases in interest rates. Pricing
generally stabilized in 2025 and is projected to remain fairly stable through 2026.
According to the Naples Area Board of Realtors (NABOR), there was a record $18.2
billion in sales in Collier County during 2020. Demand eclipsed all expectations in 2021
with a 25.8% increase in overall sales in 2021 and a 20.3% increase in median closed
price (year over year). According to the August 2025 Naples Area Board of Realtors
Market Report, "the Naples housing market held steady during the summer, with
inventory decreasing to pre -pandemic levels and an overall median closed price that
showed strong value retention." The median closed price was down 1.1 % from $595,000
in August 2024 to $588,500 in August 2025.
Generally, the commercial market lags the residential market. The significant residential
demand since the pandemic has generally stabilized the commercial market overall with
an increased demand for the industrial sector and select retail and office properties.
The recent 50 basis point decrease and subsequent 25 basis point decreases in the federal
funds rate, are expected to further stabilize the commercial market and potentially
Page 25
TRAN PARCEL COLLIER COUNTY AREA ANALYSIS
increase demand for both residential and commercial property. The Federal Reserve cut
rates by 25 basis points in September 2025, the first cut of the year, and another 25 basis
points in October 2025 and December 2025. According to the Fed's dot plot,
policymakers are split with a majority projecting just one cut in 2026, down from
expectations earlier in the year.
Finally, it is noted that Hurricane Ian, a Category 4 storm, made landfall in Southwest
Florida on September 28, 2022, and caused widespread wind and storm surge damage.
The analyses and value opinion(s) in this appraisal are based on the data available to the
appraiser at the time of the assignment and apply only as of the effective date indicated.
No analyses or opinions contained in this appraisal should be construed as predictions of

Development Activity and Trends
The Davis Group, a commercial developer based in Atlanta, commenced development on
The Randall at Orangetree, mixed used planned development approved with up to 400
residential units and 150,000 square feet of commercial space at the northeastern corner
of Immokalee Road and Fourth Street N.E., Randall Curve area in mid 2022. The
development will include an Aldi grocery store, Ace Hardware, NCH Healthcare, Self
Storage, McDonalds, AutoZone, Chase Bank, and Brickyard Car Wash.
Barron Collier Companies and Metro Development Group developed Founders Square, a
55-acre mixed -use development located on the southeast corner of Immokalee Road and
Collier Boulevard 2021. The development is anchored by The Pointe, a collection of 10
separate restaurants and other retail tenants. It also include a 400-unit Class A apartment
community, known as The Haldeman; Physicians Regional Medical Group; and
StorQuest Self Storage.
A new Collier County government center located along the east side of Collier Blvd
within the northeast corner of Immokalee Road and Collier Blvd opened in early 2022.
The first phase of the Heritage Bay Government Center includes a 22,750 square foot
government services building on 7.7 acres the county owns immediately north of NCH
Northeast. The county tax collector's office has the largest space in the one-story

building, but satellite offices also will be provided for the property appraiser, supervisor
of elections and select services of the clerk of courts.
As discussed, the new NCH Healthcare Northeast located at the northeast quadrant of
Immokalee Road and Collier Blvd (CR 951) opened in late 2015 and is the first free
standing ER facility in Collier County. The two-story building consists of approximately
41,500± square feet.
Watercrest Naples Assisted Living and Memory Care, a new 128-unit luxury senior
living community opened in 2019 on the north side of Immokalee Road east of Collier
Boulevard.
A 46,000 square foot Publix opened in March 2017 at the corner of Immokalee Road and
Randall Boulevard. The Neighborhood Shoppes at Orangetree development includes a
CVS pharmacy, Publix Liquors store, China Palace restaurant, and Diamond Nails salon.
Residential growth continues to shift east with Ave Maria becoming the top -selling
single-family residential community in Collier County. The Immokalee Road corridor
between Naples and Ave Maria is projected to see thousands of new homes developed in
the next few years.
Outlook and Conclusions
As with the overall Collier County market, the long term economic outlook for Rural
Estates is positive. Total population is projected to increase slightly over the next five
years and begin a more normalized pattern thereafter.
Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, the residential market had stabilized after several
years of an expansion period, with sustained growth in demand and increasing
construction. Since the coronavirus pandemic, residential demand increased significantly
with record sales in 2020 and continued high demand but limited inventory in 2021 and
2022. Inventory increased in 2023 and 2024 as demand declined due to continued
increases in interest rates. Pricing generally stabilized in 2025 and is projected to remain
fairly stable through 2026.
The recent 50 basis point decrease and subsequent 25 basis point decreases in the federal
funds rate, are expected to further stabilize the commercial market and potentially
increase demand for both residential and commercial property. The Federal Reserve cut
rates by 25 basis points in September 2025, the first cut of the year, and another 25 basis
points in October 2025 and December 2025. According to the Fed's dot plot,
policymakers are split with a majority projecting just one cut in 2026, down from
expectations earlier in the year.

TRAN PARCEL REAL ESTATE TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
REAL ESTATE TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS
The real estate tax assessment of the subject is administered by Collier County. In 2008,
Florida voters amended the Constitution to give non -homestead property owners some
protection against increases in their annual property tax assessments. As amended, the
Florida Constitution now prohibits the assessment of certain non -homestead property
from increasing by more than 10% per year. The 10% cap applies to most types of
commercial property, including non -homestead residential property (i.e. apartments and
other rental property) and nonresidential property (i.e. commercial property and vacant
land). The cap was set to expire on January 1, 2019; however, in November 2018 Florida
voters amended the Constitution to make the cap permanent. The protection of the 10%
cap is lost when there is a change of ownership or control.
The property tax identification number and assessed value of the property for tax year
2025 are as follows:
ASSESSED VALUES
Tax Identification Number 41612760001

Property Tax Comments The 2024 taxes have been paid. The 2025 taxes are
due April 1, 2026. The School Board millage is
applied to the uncapped assessed value.
The tax assessment for subject property is currently $20,510 per acre, or $30,139 per
acre excluding the assessment cap. Based on our valuation analysis, the subject's
assessment appears low.
Page 41
TRAN PARCEL HIGHEST AND BEST USE
HIGHEST AND BEST USE
Highest and best use may be defined as:
The reasonably probable use of property that results in the highest value. The four
criteria the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical
possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity. 1
■ Physically possible for the land to accommodate the size and shape of the
ideal improvement.
■ Legally permissible under the zoning regulations, building codes,
environmental regulations, and other restrictions that apply to the site. A
property use that is either currently allowed or most probably allowable.
■ Financially feasible to generate sufficient income to support the use.
■ Maximally productive, or capable of producing the highest value from
among the permissible, possible, and financially feasible uses.
Highest and Best Use As Vacant
Physically Possible
The subject site is 2.27 acres or 99,000 square feet with 150 feet of frontage along 38th
Avenue SE. The physical characteristics of the subject tract should reasonably
accommodate any use that is not restricted by its size.
The subject's utilities are typical and adequate for the market area. The site is rectangular.
The site is located in a FEMA flood zone AH area per FEMA Flood Map Number:
12021C 0445H, dated May 16, 2012, which is classified as a flood hazard area.
There are no known physical reasons that would unusually restrict development. The site
is considered to have a functional utility suitable for a variety of uses.
Legally Permissible
The subject site is zoned Estates (E), which allows low density residential with limited
agricultural uses. Permitted uses include single-family dwellings, family care facilities
(subject to section 5.05.04), essential services (as set forth in section 2.01.03), and
schools, public, including educational plants.
Recognizing the principle of conformity, we consider the prevailing land use patterns in
the area. Therefore, only single-family residential uses are given further consideration in
determining the highest and best use of the site, as if vacant.
1 The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal 7t' ed. (Chicago: Appraisal Institute, 2022)
Page 42
TRAN PARCEL HIGHEST AND BEST USE
Financially Feasible
Financial feasibility is an analysis of the ability of a property to generate sufficient
income to support the use, or a reasonable probability of producing a positive income
stream net of operating expenses, financial costs, and capital amortization.
The projected growth in population and employment provide an economic base that
supports demand for real estate in the subject neighborhood and for the subject property.
These conditions have resulted in increasing property values and should stimulate
continued increases within the foreseeable future. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, the
residential market had stabilized after several years of an expansion period, with
sustained growth in demand and increasing construction. Since the coronavirus
pandemic, residential demand increased significantly with record sales in 2020 and
continued high demand but limited inventory in 2021 and 2022. Inventory increased in
2023 and 2024 as demand declined due to continued increases in interest rates. Pricing
generally stabilized in 2025 and is projected to remain fairly stable through 2026.
The recent 50 basis point decrease and subsequent 25 basis point decreases in the federal
funds rate, are expected to further stabilize the commercial market and potentially
increase demand for both residential and commercial property. The Federal Reserve cut
rates by 25 basis points in September 2025, the first cut of the year, and another 25 basis
points in October 2025 and December 2025. According to the Fed's dot plot,
policymakers are split with a majority projecting just one cut in 2026, down from
expectations earlier in the year.
On this basis, barring unforeseen changes in the market, a well -designed single-family
home that is appropriately marketed and priced, should be received favorably by the
market.
Maximally Productive
The maximally productive land use yields the highest value of the possible uses. Single-
family residential development is the only use that meets the tests of physically possible,
legally permissible, and financially feasible. Therefore, single-family residential
development is concluded to be the maximally productive and highest and best use of the
site.
Highest and Best Use as Improved
No improvements are situated on the site. Therefore, a highest and best use analysis as
improved is not applicable.
Most Probable Buyer
Considering the size and location of the property, the most probable buyer is an owner -
user or builder for single-family development.

TRAN PARCEL VALUATION METHODOLOGY
VALUATION METHODOLOGY
Three basic approaches may be used to arrive at an estimate of market value. They are:
1. The Cost Approach
2. The Sales Comparison Approach
3. The Income Approach
Cost Approach
The Cost Approach estimates the current cost to construct the existing structure including
an entrepreneurial incentive, depreciation, and the estimated land value. This approach is
particularly applicable when the improvements represent the highest and best use of the
land and are relatively new. It is also applicable when the property has unique or
specialized improvements for which there is little or no sales data from comparable
properties.
Sales Comparison Approach
The Sales Comparison Approach compares sales of similar properties with the subject
property. Each comparable sale is adjusted for its inferior or superior characteristics. The
values derived from the adjusted comparable sales form a range of value for the subject.
By process of correlation and analysis, a final indicated value is derived. This approach is
most reliable in an active market, and is least reliable when valuing a property for which
no direct comparable sales data is available.
Income Approach
The Income Approach converts the anticipated flow of future benefits (cash flows and
reversion) to a present value estimate through a capitalization and or a discounting
process. This approach generally reflects a typical investor's perception of the
relationship between the potential income of a property and its market value.
Final Reconciliation
The appraisal process concludes with the Final Reconciliation of the values derived from
the approaches applied for a single estimate of market value. The reconciliation of the
approaches is based on an evaluation of the quantity and quality of the available data in
each approach. Furthermore, different properties require different means of analysis and
lend themselves to one approach over the others.

VALUATION METHODOLOGY
ANALYSES APPLIED
A cost analysis was considered and was not developed because there are no
improvements that contribute value to the property.
A sales comparison analysis was considered and was developed because typically this is
the most appropriate approach for the valuation of vacant land. This approach is
applicable to the subject because there is an active market for similar properties and
sufficient sales data is available for analysis.
An income analysis was considered and was not developed because the subject is not
likely to generate rental income as vacant land.

TRAN PARCEL SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
The Sales Comparison Approach is based on the premise that a buyer would pay no more
for a specific property than the cost of obtaining a property with the same quality, utility,
and perceived benefits of ownership. It is based on the principles of supply and demand,
balance, substitution and externalities. The following steps describe the applied process
of the Sales Comparison Approach.
• The market in which the subject property competes is investigated; comparable
sales, contracts for sale and current offerings are reviewed.
• The most pertinent data is further analyzed and the quality of the transaction is
determined.
• The most meaningful unit of value for the subject property is determined.
• Each comparable sale is analyzed and where appropriate, adjusted to equate with
the subject property.
• The value indication of each comparable sale is analyzed and the data reconciled
for a final indication of value via the Sales Comparison Approach.
Land Comparables
I have researched five comparables for this analysis; these are documented on the
following pages followed by a location map and analysis grid. All sales have been
researched through numerous sources, inspected and verified by a party to the
transaction. For this analysis, we use the price per acre as the appropriate unit of
comparison because market participants typically compare sale prices and property
values on this basis.

SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
Analysis Grid
The above sales have been analyzed and compared with the subject property. I have
considered adjustments in the areas of:
Effective Sale Price This takes into consideration unusual conditions involved in the
sale that could affect the sales price, such as excess land, non -
realty components, commissions, or other similar factors.
Usually the sale price is adjusted for this prior to comparison to
the subject.
Real Property Rights Property rights dissimilar to the subject which affect value.
Financing Terms Favorable or unfavorable seller financing, or assumption of
existing financing.
Conditions of Sale Circumstances that atypically motivate the buyer or seller, such
as 1031 exchange transaction, assemblage, or forced sale.
Market Conditions Inflation or deflation since sale date due to economic influences
Location Market or submarket area influences on sale price; surrounding
land use influences.
Physical Characteristics Attributes such as size, shape, utilities, frontage, zoning, etc.
On the following page is a sales comparison grid displaying the subject property, the
comparables and the adjustments applied.

Comparable Land Sale Adjustments
Property Rights
All of the comparables transferred in fee simple interest; therefore, no adjustments for
property rights are required.
Financing
All of the comparable sales had market orientated financing or were cash transactions;
therefore, no adjustments for financing are required.
Conditions of Sale
All of the comparable sales were arm's length transactions; therefore, no adjustments for
conditions of sale are required.
The listing agent for Comparable 3 noted that the seller wanted to use the property for
storage; however, reportedly it was not permitted by the county; therefore, decided to sell
the property. The lot was listed for the same price as the 2023 purchase price and closed
within six days. The below market asking price is considered to be offset by the site
improvements described in the following topography adjustment. Therefore, no
adjustments are made.

prices over the past four months. However, it is noted this is unadjusted raw data and
does not relate directly to the subject.
Based on the previous analysis a market conditions adjustment is not applied.
Location
The comparables are all located within the immediate market area. No adjustments could
be supported; therefore, none are made.
Size
For this analysis, the comparables are relatively similar in terms of size; therefore, no
adjustments are required.
Environmental Issues
According to a Conservation Collier Property Summary Report dated March 2025, there
are no wetlands on the parcel. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Wetlands
Mapper, the parcel consists entirely of uplands. According to a Wetlands Determination
by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection dated March 2, 2024, there is a
small area of wetlands near the northwest corner (front) of the site. According to the
Conservation Collier Property Summary, the parcel consists of mesic flatwoods and
Oak/Pine hammock. The estimated cost to remove exotics is $900 with ongoing annual
costs estimated at $340. Cabbage Palm thinning is estimated at $900.
Comparables 1, 3, 4, and 5 have Informal Wetland Determinations showing the lots are
entirely uplands similar to the subject; therefore, no adjustments are required.
Comparable 2 has an Informal Wetland Determination showing a small amount of
wetlands in the center of the site along the eastern lot line. No adjustment could be
supported; therefore, none is made.
The comparables are all heavily treed and likely have similar exotics; therefore, no
additional adjustments are made for the removal of exotics or Cabbage Palm thinning.
Topography
The subject and Comparables 1, 2, 4, and 5 are all heavily treed; therefore, no
adjustments are required. Comparable 3 is partially treed. The listing agent reported
approximately $30,000 of site improvements including clearing, gravel driveway, and
fill. The site improvements are considered to be offset by the below market asking price
previously described in the Conditions of Sale adjustment. Therefore, no adjustments are
made.
Zoning
All of the comparables are similar in terms of zoning; therefore, no adjustments are
required.

RECONCILIATION
The process of reconciliation involves the analysis of each approach to value. The
quantity and quality of data applied the significance of each approach as it relates to
market behavior and defensibility of each approach are considered and weighed. Finally,
each is considered separately and comparatively with each other. As discussed
previously, we use only the sales comparison approach in developing an opinion of value
for the subject. The cost and income approaches are not applicable, and are not used.
FINAL VALUE CONCLUSION
Based on the data and analyses developed in this appraisal, I have reconciled to the
following value conclusion(s), as of January 4, 2026, subject to the Limiting Conditions
and Assumptions of this appraisal.
VALUE CONCLUSIONS
Appraisal Premise Interest Appraised Date of Value Value Conclusion
Market Value, As Is Fee Simple January 4, 2026 $150,000
The value conclusion(s) are subject to the following hypothetical conditions and extraordinary
conditions. These conditions may affect the assignment results.
Hypothetical Conditions: None.
Extraordinary Assumptions: None.
Exposure and Marketing Times
Exposure time is always presumed to precede the effective date of the appraisal and is the
length of time the subject property would have been exposed for sale in the market had it
sold on the effective valuation date at the concluded market value. Marketing time is an
estimate of the amount of time it might take to sell a property at the estimated market
value immediately following the effective date of value.
Based on our review of recent sales transactions for similar properties and our analysis of
supply and demand in the local market it is our opinion that the probable marketing and
exposure time for the property is 10-12 months.

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
This appraisal is based on the following assumptions, except as otherwise noted in the
report.
1. The title is marketable and free and clear of all liens, encumbrances,
encroachments, easements and restrictions. The property is under responsible
ownership and competent management and is available for its highest and best
use.
2. There are no existing judgments or pending or threatened litigation that could
affect the value of the property.
3. There are no hidden or undisclosed conditions of the land or of the improvements
that would render the property more or less valuable. Furthermore, there is no
asbestos in the property.
4. The revenue stamps placed on any deed referenced herein to indicate the sale
price are in correct relation to the actual dollar amount of the transaction.
5. The property is in compliance with all applicable building, environmental, zoning,
and other federal, state and local laws, regulations and codes.
6. The information furnished by others is believed to be reliable, but no warranty is
given for its accuracy.
This appraisal is subject to the following limiting conditions, except as otherwise
noted in the report.
1. An appraisal is inherently subjective and represents our opinion as to the value of
the property appraised.
2. The conclusions stated in our appraisal apply only as of the effective date of the
appraisal, and no representation is made as to the effect of subsequent events.
3. No changes in any federal, state or local laws, regulations or codes (including,
without limitation, the Internal Revenue Code) are anticipated.
4. No environmental impact studies were either requested or made in conjunction
with this appraisal, and we reserve the right to revise or rescind any of the value
opinions based upon any subsequent environmental impact studies. If any
environmental impact statement is required by law, the appraisal assumes that
such statement will be favorable and will be approved by the appropriate
regulatory bodies.
5. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, we are not required to give testimony,
respond to any subpoena or attend any court, governmental or other hearing with
reference to the property without compensation relative to such additional
employment.
6. We have made no survey of the property and assume no responsibility in
connection with such matters. Any sketch or survey of the property included in
this report is for illustrative purposes only and should not be considered to be
Page 57
TRAN PARCEL
ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
scaled accurately for size. The appraisal covers the property as described in this
report, and the areas and dimensions set forth are assumed to be correct.
7. No opinion is expressed as to the value of subsurface oil, gas or mineral rights, if
any, and we have assumed that the property is not subject to surface entry for the
exploration or removal of such materials, unless otherwise noted in our appraisal.
8. We accept no responsibility for considerations requiring expertise in other fields.
Such considerations include, but are not limited to, legal descriptions and other
legal matters such as legal title, geologic considerations such as soils and seismic
stability, and civil, mechanical, electrical, structural and other engineering and
environmental matters.
9. The distribution of the total valuation in the report between land and
improvements applies only under the reported highest and best use of the
property. The allocations of value for land and improvements must not be used in
conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used. The appraisal
report shall be considered only in its entirety. No part of the appraisal report shall
be utilized separately or out of context.
10. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions
as to value, the identity of the appraisers, or any reference to the Appraisal
Institute) shall be disseminated through advertising media, public relations media,
news media or any other means of communication (including without limitation
prospectuses, private offering memoranda and other offering material provided to
prospective investors) without the prior written consent of the person signing the
report.
11. Information, estimates and opinions contained in the report, obtained from third -
party sources are assumed to be reliable and have not been independently verified.
12. Any income and expense estimates contained in the appraisal report are used only
for the purpose of estimating value and do not constitute predictions of future
operating results.
13. If the property is subject to one or more leases, any estimate of residual value
contained in the appraisal may be particularly affected by significant changes in
the condition of the economy, of the real estate industry, or of the appraised
property at the time these leases expire or otherwise terminate.
14. No consideration has been given to personal property located on the premises or
to the cost of moving or relocating such personal property; only the real property
has been considered.
15. The current purchasing power of the dollar is the basis for the value stated in our
appraisal; we have assumed that no extreme fluctuations in economic cycles will
occur.
16. The value found herein is subject to these and to any other assumptions or
conditions set forth in the body of this report but which may have been omitted
from this list of Assumptions and Limiting Conditions.
Page 58
TRAN PARCEL
ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
17. The analyses contained in the report necessarily incorporate numerous estimates
and assumptions regarding property performance, general and local business and
economic conditions, the absence of material changes in the competitive
environment and other matters. Some estimates or assumptions, however,
inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may
occur; therefore, actual results achieved during the period covered by our analysis
will vary from our estimates, and the variations may be material.
18. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became effective January 26, 1992.
We have not made a specific survey or analysis of any property to determine
whether the physical aspects of the improvements meet the ADA accessibility
guidelines. In as much as compliance matches each owner's financial ability with
the cost to cure the non -conforming physical characteristics of a property, we
cannot comment on compliance to ADA. Given that compliance can change with
each owner's financial ability to cure non -accessibility, the value of the subject
does not consider possible non-compliance. A specific study of both the owner's
financial ability and the cost to cure any deficiencies would be needed for the
Department of Justice to determine compliance.
19. The appraisal report is prepared for the exclusive benefit of the Client, its
subsidiaries and/or affiliates. It may not be used or relied upon by any other party.
All parties who use or rely upon any information in the report without our written
consent do so at their own risk.
20. No studies have been provided to us indicating the presence or absence of
hazardous materials on the subject property or in the improvements, and our
valuation is predicated upon the assumption that the subject property is free and
clear of any environment hazards including, without limitation, hazardous wastes,
toxic substances and mold. No representations or warranties are made regarding
the environmental condition of the subject property and the person signing the
report shall not be responsible for any such environmental conditions that do exist
or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such
conditions exist. Because we are not experts in the field of environmental
conditions, the appraisal report cannot be considered as an environmental
assessment of the subject property.
21. The person signing the report may have reviewed available flood maps and may
have noted in the appraisal report whether the subject property is located in an
identified Special Flood Hazard Area. We are not qualified to detect such areas
and therefore do not guarantee such determinations. The presence of flood plain
areas and/or wetlands may affect the value of the property, and the value
conclusion is predicated on the assumption that wetlands are non-existent or
minimal.
22. RKL Appraisal and Consulting, PLC is not a building or environmental inspector.
RKL Appraisal and Consulting, PLC does not guarantee that the subject property
is free of defects or environmental problems. Mold may be present in the subject
property and a professional inspection is recommended.
Page 59
TRAN PARCEL ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS
23. The appraisal report and value conclusion for an appraisal assumes the
satisfactory completion of construction, repairs or alterations in a workmanlike
manner.
24. The intended use of the appraisal is stated in the General Information section of
the report. The use of the appraisal report by anyone other than the Client is
prohibited except as otherwise provided. Accordingly, the appraisal report is
addressed to and shall be solely for the Client's use and benefit unless we provide
our prior written consent. We expressly reserve the unrestricted right to withhold
our consent to your disclosure of the appraisal report (or any part thereof
including, without limitation, conclusions of value and our identity), to any third
parties. Stated again for clarification, unless our prior written consent is obtained,
no third party may rely on the appraisal report (even if their reliance was
foreseeable).
25. All prospective value estimates presented in this report are estimates and forecasts
which are prospective in nature and are subject to considerable risk and
uncertainty. In addition to the contingencies noted in the preceding paragraph,
several events may occur that could substantially alter the outcome of our
estimates such as, but not limited to changes in the economy, interest rates, and
capitalization rates, behavior of consumers, investors and lenders, fire and other
physical destruction, changes in title or conveyances of easements and deed
restrictions, etc. It is assumed that conditions reasonably foreseeable at the present
time are consistent or similar with the future.

Important: This is not a tax bill. Do not rely on current taxes to estimate taxes after a change in ownership. A transfer may
significantly affect the taxable value due to loss of exemptions, reset of Save Our Homes or the 10% Cap, and/or market
changes. Use our Tax Estimator to estimate taxes under new ownership. Values reflect conditions as of January 1 st each
year and may differ from the actual tax bill due to millage changes or additional non -ad valorem assessments. For the most
accurate and up-to-date tax information, please visit the Collier County Tax Collector's Office.

David B. Struhs
Secretary
Department personnel conducted a site visit on February 19, 2004 . The property as noted
above contains wetlands or other surface waters as defined in Chapter 62-340 F.A.C. You will
need to submit a site plan to see if there are going to be impacts to the wetlands areas.
Specifically the site supports wetlands, characterized by the following:
Vegetation: Swamp Bay, Laurel Oak, Dahoon Holly, Red Maple, Swamp Fern, Brazilian
Pepper, Ceaser Weed
Soils: Dark Surface, Sulfur Odor
Hydric Indicators: Elevated Lichen Lines, Morphological Plan Adaptations, Active
Cypress Knees, Water Marks
Works in the area would require an Etvironmental Resource Permit (ERP). Information
regarding dredging and filling in wetlands, sample drawings and an ERP application form are
enclosed for your reference. To qualify for permitting in wetlands, the impacts generally need to
be minimized to the fullest extent practicable. Mitigation may also be necessary to offset
authorized impacts.
If you would like to apply at this time, please complete sections A, C, and D of the ERP
application and submit them to our office, along with appropriate drawings and site plans with
any areas of proposed dredging or filling dimensioned and clearly indicated (by crosshatching).
Please indicate any areas that are to remain undisturbed. Upon receipt of your application and
site plans the Department will determine if a permit would be required.
This correspondence is an informal pre -application wetlands determination pursuant to
Section 373.421(6), F.S. and 62-312.040(7), Florida Administrative Code. It does not bind the
Department, its agents or employees, nor does it convey any legal rights, expressed or implied.
Persons obtaining this informal pre -application wetlands determination are not entitled to rely
upon it for purposes of compliance with provision of law or Department rules. A formal
determination of wetlands may be obtained by submitting an application to our Fort Myers
office for either:
